Title: Revisions to License Requirements for Certain Thermal Imaging Cameras Incorporating Focal Plane Arrays 
Abstract: This rule revises license requirements for certain thermal imaging cameras that incorporate focal plane arrays. The changes will reduce the number of destinations to which export or reexport licenses are required based on camera performance levels. This rule imposes a semi-annual post shipment reporting requirement for the exports from which it removes license requirements. The Bureau of Industry and Security is making these changes in recognition of availability of similar cameras in a variety of destinations and to more closely align license requirements with overall U.S. national security concerns.
